Editing William Tyndale (section)

===Theories about his origins===
Tyndale may have been born around 1494{{efn|Tyndale's birth was about 1494 according to History of the Revised Version in 1881.}} in Melksham Court, [[Stinchcombe]], a village near [[Dursley]], Gloucestershire.{{sfn|Daniell|2011}}  A conjecture is that Tyndale's family had moved to Gloucestershire at some point in the 15th century, probably as a result of the [[Wars of the Roses]]. The family may have originated from [[Northumberland]] via [[East Anglia]]. [[Tyndall|Tyndale]] is recorded in two Victorian genealogies<ref name=Nichol /><ref name=Burkes /> which claim he was the brother of Sir William Tyndale of Deane, Northumberland, and [[Hockwold cum Wilton|Hockwold]], [[Norfolk]], who was knighted at the marriage of [[Arthur, Prince of Wales]] to [[Catherine of Aragon]]. If this is true then Tyndale's family was thus descended from Baron Adam de Tyndale, a [[tenant-in-chief]] of [[Henry I of England|Henry I]].
